Description

Continuing one of the Perth Mint’s most prestigious annual series, the 2026 Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle $2 2oz Silver Enhanced Reverse Proof Ultra High Relief Gilded Coin is a spectacular tribute to Australia’s largest bird of prey. Struck from 2 troy ounces of 99.99% pure silver, this exceptional release combines Enhanced Reverse Proof, Ultra High Relief, and 24-carat gold gilding to create an extraordinary collector’s piece.

Designed by renowned engraver John M. Mercanti, the reverse features the striking silhouette of an Australian Wedge-tailed Eagle in the foreground, with a Bald Eagle positioned behind it. Both majestic birds gaze to the right, while the eagle imagery and outer rim are highlighted in 24-carat gold, creating a stunning contrast against the reverse proof finish. The design also incorporates the inscription ‘AUSTRALIAN WEDGE-TAILED EAGLE’, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, along with the coin’s weight, purity and 2026 year-date.

The coin’s Ultra High Relief reverse is struck on a specially engineered concave surface, allowing exceptional metal flow during striking and producing remarkable depth and detail that brings the design to life.

Issued as Australian legal tender with a maximum mintage of just 1,000 coins, this premium release is an outstanding addition to any collection of Australian wildlife, high-relief coinage or John Mercanti designs.
